Performance
12 metricsThe AMD EPYC 9754 Emb scores 2,403 in single-core performance and 115,016 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 16,625 for overall performance, 78,125 for productivity performance, 67,584 for creator performance, 161,022 for engineering performance and 35,963 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 899 per core, 449 per thread and 320 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 876. Its performance index is 206, so its overall performance is 106% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.
In the individual workload tests the AMD EPYC 9754 Emb scores 1,057,303 in integer math, 624,362 in floating-point math, 3,427,615 in compression, 220,761 in cryptography, 14,962 in physics simulation, 235,477 in vector SIMD, 1,065 in the prime sieve and 421,722 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 1,695% above in integer math, 1,260% above in floating-point math, 1,403% above in compression, 1,821% above in cryptography, 1,273% above in physics simulation, 1,418% above in vector SIMD, 1,490% above in the prime sieve and 1,762% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.
